Floating By
Escape the Routine: Dawson James' Floating By Reveals the Art of Drifting
Lyrics
I gotta go someplace
I feel the need to go to a different place
Yeah the odds that I'll flake
The likelihood that I might cancel or avoid commitments
Gotta get out of here babe
I must leave this current situation or environment, baby
Before my mind floats away
Before my thoughts or consciousness drift away
I watch myself
I observe my own actions
Repeat unhealthy vices
Repeating habits that are harmful to my well-being
I lead a lie
I am living a falsehood
Of living life
Engaged in a lifestyle that lacks authenticity
Without stress
Living without the burden of stress
Guess it's cause
Perhaps because
There's no changing
There is no possibility of change
Spent that time on
I invested time in
Making drinks and
Making and consuming alcoholic beverages
Smoking funny things
Indulging in substances that alter perception
Just wasting time
Simply wasting time
While I keep floating by
While I continue to drift through life
You're teasing all my needs
You are playfully arousing my desires
Yeah that's fine by me
And I am okay with that
We gotta get out of here babe
We need to escape from this current situation, baby
Out on a lake
Heading to a lake, just to float away
Just float away
A desire to detach and drift
I listen for
I await the moment
When you say that it's time to go
When you indicate that it's time to leave
But didn't know
Unaware that it ends abruptly
It's ends so fast
It concludes swiftly
But then it's slow
Yet, paradoxically, it feels slow
Guess it's cause
Perhaps because
There's no changing
There is no possibility of change
Spent that time on
I spent time on
Making drinks and
Making and consuming alcoholic beverages
Smoking funny things
Indulging in substances that alter perception
Just wasting time
Simply wasting time
While I keep floating by
While I continue to drift through life
